  1. The lines that finished the game are the lines that should start tonight. I agree that Poolman with LJ/Pattyn was far more effective than with Caggiula/Schmaltz. You simply can't go wrong when the 3rd and 4th lines play as well as they have for UND. I would argue that Gaarder/O'Donnell/Poganski is our top line right now. 

  2. So Ratelle weighs right around 260lbs, runs a 4.5 40(thought I heard that) and benches 405.......that is absolutely nuts!

     

    With those kinds of measurables and with another season of production he could be looking at getting drafted. He's certainly put in the work!

  3. Jones has to go. Underperformed for the most part, losing record over 9 seasons, and falling attendance indicates increasing apathy towards the basketball program by casual fans. Just had one of the worst seasons in school history, and yet people are saying that it's not his fault? 

     

    Look back at the games and you can note a glaring lack of in-game coaching changes. Questionable personnel decisions, lack of half-time adjustments, and failure to manage the game leads to losses. Some people on here cite the fact that many of the losses were by only a basket or two. One or two tough losses can be expected in basketball, but the fact that this team never closed out a game or came through in the clutch cannot be put on the players simply not performing, it also comes down to execution which comes directly from the coaches, be it in timeouts or the practice prior to the game. 

     

    Jones' teams have been incredibly consistent in very frustrating ways. Free throw shooting and rebounding are built by effort, dedication, and practice. UND has not been good in these two categories for several seasons and that comes down to the coaches. 

     

    IMO, Jones has to go, a change has to be made, and the basketball program has to start moving in a different direction.

  4. This is good. Really good. We get a troll on here with many, many other bison jock sniffers, ripping UND athletics and every chance they get, and you are defending him? i know your intentions are good, but you're sure you're not drinking the kool-aid too?

     

    It's not defending the bison trolls, it's defending the same division that we play in. You are showing your complete ignorance by even bringing this up as an argument.
